TravelSingle-Engine Plane Crashes In Illinois, Killing All 4 People Aboard - US by sharks776(op): 5:54am On Apr 21, 2025
Four people died when a small, single-engine plane crashed in Trilla, Illinois, on Saturday morning.

The plane departed from Menomonie, Wisconsin, and went down at around 10:15 a.m, according to state police. All occupants were pronounced dead at the scene.

The National Transportation Safety Board, which will investigate the crash, identified the plane as a Cessna C180G model.

Gov. JB Pritzker urged the public to follow instructions from law enforcement as roads were closed in the crash aftermath.

“Terrible news out of Coles County,” Pritzker wrote in a post on X. “My administration is monitoring the situation as we keep those impacted by the plane crash in our thoughts today.”

Same way my 3.5kva inverter got destroyed by lightning and repairer was quoting almost 200,000 for new board and workmanship, i just kept it aside

I finally bought a 5kva 24v felicity
Does Felicity has 5kva inverter at 24v?
I thought 24v stopped at 3.5kva?
Please can you share more light on this?

Same thing I am facing and once complained about here. My own is why the consensus that panels must face south seeing as rhe sun isnt constant and always moving about.

WILUG:
Quick question for all the gurus in the house...

I'm seriously looking at changing to lithium batteries. My challenge is the cost. I've also seen people advice that you can start small and add more later.

My questions are

1. Can multiple brands be coexist? for example, if i get a good deal on a 10kwh felicity battery today, and a deal on a 10kwh blue carbon tomorrow, can I add them?

2. can multiple power capacities coexist? say I can only afford 5kwh today, and tomorrow i'm able to buy 10 or 15kwh, can I add them together? or will I be stuck with 5kwh increments?

3. What's the maximum period between such additions? if I buy a lithium battery today, Can I add another maybe in a year or two? for tubular batteries, people usually say that it's not advisable.

Thank you.
I will make it simple

Answer:
Assuming all the batteries have the same voltage.

My experience is quite similar. There was this specific pack that was sent back to Jos THREE times before a cell was changed to resolve the problem. About a year now and no new issue. All the back and forth could be distressing with all the logistic logjam in Nigeria. I have four of his packs in my house now ( 3 bought directly from him and 1 as being prior-owned by a member of this forum)

I have 7 different Lithium packs in use - a Felicity 15kwh, a Pylontech US 3000,a 7.5kwh, 2x6kwh pack, 5kwh and a 3kwh and he built 4 of those packs
Wow 😲 this is huge, would love to see a picture of your power set up.

Even more. If I have Deye, I wouldn't even use its smartload function. I have much better control with my smart setup. Unlike Deye Smartload, I can shed high load selectively. I can power fridge and freezer without powering any other thing. If I want my freezer to stay on, when freshly filled, I can just set that. I can power pump without turning the heater on.

Smartload is for people who don't know that better options exist.
Please explain more. How did you achieve it?

Dry contacts only activates at critical battery low alarm and deactivates at battery floating stage and will not even activate even if grid comes on but until the battery floats. Deye Smartload gives you the ability to activate this port when grid comes on, when SOC is at your choice level, when PV wattage reaches a certain level. The newest firmware update even makes it possible for the smartload to shut off if grid goes off and battery has not reached your desired smartload ON SOC.
We are currently upvoting a TIME OF USE Option for the SMARTLOAD PORT.

You can get them from Solarco (Abuja) or Xtra power (Lagos).
Deye is a very good superior product but do they have a friendly service center when push comes to shove?

Basically, the after sales service offered by Felicity is mostly the reason we stick with them. Our chest doesn't start biting heavily whenever a client calls to complain about something not working.

Good Morning Everyone, Happy Easter to you all.

I recently just started the green energy journey with a few mistake and it's been fun.

I joined the Felicity crew cuz my friend was using their products but would have gone with Growatt or Epever if I knew what I know now. (No regrets).

I'm a smart home Enthusiastic and a sucker to stats and monitoring. cool cool grin

My current set up is - Felicity 5KVA inverter (IVPS 5048 ) + Felicity 80amps MPPT + Felicity 5KWH 48v Battery (LPBF48100) + Jinko 435w panels x 6

I found a couple of ports on my inverter (RS485 & RS232), charge controller (RJ45) and batteries but cant get them to communicate with each other. Is there a way to read information from these ports wirelessly or access them remotely.

Please I would be happy to learn. My thought is that those ports arent there for decoration but there's very little information about felicity setups and remote monitoring online.

Please help me or point me in a direction to follow. Would love to read the power generated from the panels and add the stats to home assistant.
I am actually in the same dilemma, am in dear need of a remote monitoring device for my Felicity set up.
My set:

7.5kv inverter (Felicity)
60a cc (Felicity)
100a cc (Felicity)
60a cc (fangpusun)
12.5kwh x2(wakatek lithium batteries)
10kwh (Felicity lithium battery)

How can I monitor remotely?

As a professional installer, you just don't look at the monetary amount/value alone. Consider the customers satisfaction also. Trust me, both you and the customer will be more happier in the future if you deliver a more satisfactory work today. That's how you get more recommendations.

So, I am not alone. I almost got the 670 watts panel but after adding cost of freight from Lagos it did not make economic sense..

If I can find a cheaper way of shipping it to Abuja, I will reconsider. They wanted to add an additional 40,000.00 Naira to the cost of the panels.
I just bought 575watt original Jinko panels from the dealer here in Abuja. It cost 160k per panel which is far better than transporting from Lagos. Plus, the dealer delivers to your location after purchase.
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by sharks776(m):
FEGEITOK:
The calculation that helped me decide which panel to buy:
To calculate the ratio of watts to dollars for each solar panel, we'll divide the wattage of the panel by its price.

555-watt solar panel:

555 watts / $166,000 ≈ 0.0033 watts per dollar

600-watt solar panel:

600 watts / $202,000 ≈ 0.0029 watts per dollar

670-watt solar panel:

670 watts / $224,000 ≈ 0.0030 watts per dollar

Comparing the ratios, the 555-watt solar panel offers the highest ratio of watts to dollars, indicating that it provides the most wattage for the money.

Substitute dollars for Naira

Add the cost of freight to the cost of the panel for a more accurate figure
I beg to cheap in here. I do the same analysis when buying solar PV
